In case anybody is looking for a cheap and low setup for a 6x42 on a 700, the SWFA low rings and some $22 Burris Extreme Tactical 2pc steel bases get things down fairly low on a PSS/5R/LTR contour without interfering with the bolt handle. Don't know if BC caps will clear the handle out back. ![[Linked Image]](http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g7/JPro1978/Burris%20Bases_zpss4dunyhj.jpg)
Now with even more aplomb

Interesting. My old Chicken has no chicken. My newer Chicken has a Chicken, and my brand new Chicken has no Chicken. It's a Chickenspiracy.... ![[Linked Image]](http://i756.photobucket.com/albums/xx210/16bore/swfa1_zpsc98f9a40.jpg)

Got my 1-4's 2 days ago. I really like it so far, and clarity at 1x is not as bad as I expected based on a few posts here. Illumination is nice and doesn't bleed - retinal stays sharp.
Looking forward to taking one shooting. What the hell is retinal, some kinda 'roid ointment? too funny! I love it when people call it a wrec-ticle rect-icle? Crosshairs ideal for making a Texas heart shot?

Mine arrived this afternoon. It's still got the chicken and it's still from Japan. But it didn't come with the lens covers.
I haven't mounted/shot with the new one yet, but the adjustments feel even more positive than the last one I bought.

Here's the story on naked chickens:
Thank you for your patronage for SWFA.
Years and years ago, when we acquired the "Tasco Super Sniper" it wasn't just for the intellectual property of the riflescope. However it was for all of the "Super Sniper" assets, including they packaging.
This resulted in several container boxes in which the scopes are enclosed.
Once we finalized the purchase, we deconstructed the line, and reengineered the designed improving on it. One of the greater enhancements was recessing the objective lens.
Originally, Tasco offered the scope with the objective lens being nearly flush with the end of the scope. This is a tail tell of an original Tasco. All of the SWFA SS, will have a recessed objective lens. There were several other upgrades internally. However the easiest way to know if you have an SWFA SS vs. Tasco Super Sniper is the objective lens.
Recently with our more recent manufacturing runs, we incorporated the etched eagle on the left side of the scope. However we do still have some older inventory on various models that are not as popular that do not have any of the branding on it.
Please let us know if there is anything that we may assist you with.

So...according to your other post your new chicken has no chicken. Does this mean that your new chicken is really a very old chicken they dug out of a box in back when they ran out of inventory?

Seems my chicken was an original recipe chicken that was gutted and rechickened. More like extra crispy now and full stealth mode.
